Text Color not working with Unicode Chr(9899) (Medium Black Circle)

I'm using the unicode characters to display a circle and then change the text color.  I'm successful the change in text color with the smaller "black circle" chr(9679) and colors will change but then when I use the "medium black circle" chr(9899), it remains black.  I want to use the medium black circle as the size is bigger and easier to see the color. 

Anyone else experience the same issue? 

if([Overall Health]='Off-Track',chr(9679),
if([Overall Health]='At-Risk',chr(9899),
if([Overall Health]='On-Track', chr(9679),
if([Overall Health]='On-Hold', chr(9679),
chr(9675)))))

Anyone have a different approach to show "stop light" using using some symbols/unicode characters?  I'm only interested in solid circles.

Hi @sharon9 

I did not work for me either 😮 so I tried others, it seems the 11044 could do the job, it is a circle, not as large as 9899 but probably large enough and it gets colored !!!!

That's perfect.  I didn't find "11044" anywhere in my searches.  Thank you so much.
